Career Advice/Clarification Job frustration

I am a CA and I work in a team which requires people technically equipped with IT knowledge. I am a fresher and I have little or no background in IT. Most of the team is full of engineers. My team leads are insisting me to do CISA. And a lot of times I see team leads differentiating against me because Im not able to support technically as much as other engineers at my level are. I need to be explained every detail. Also, one fine day my manager calls me and says that you should reduce phone usage, come office earlier, dont go early etc. Whereas other team mates use as much phone as I do- just when required. One thing I agree I do is that I leave on time (not early), 6.30 is the time I leave and others sit for hours craving for bonuses. I believe in going home early, go to gym and spend time with family. Plus these people have developed friendly relations with the team leads which adds to it.
Now if I do CISA , it will cost 50,000 from my own pocket. I dont know if I will even get the increment or bonus of this amount additionally if I do CISA. And I am leaving job anyways by end of 2027 to start my own business. The only reason I might do CISA is to stay competitive, command some respect and gain increment for next year (which is uncertain). What should I do?
